asciilifeform: !q seen btcinfobot

snsabot: btcinfobot last seen here on 2020-05-03 12:35:37: The 24-Hour VWAP for BTC is $ 8796.65 USD

asciilifeform: shinohai: what happened to that thing ?

shinohai: asciilifeform: Just got lazy and haven't brought it back online, had taken it down to look into those issues you raised previously.

asciilifeform: shinohai: y'know, if you posted the src, other folx might help... for instance my bot originally had broken reconnector, bvt fixed

shinohai: asciilifeform: also before I make blog post on this, is there any reason following patch would produce catastrophic results in trb? http://btc.info.gf/paste/ad8fdf@raw

shinohai: (So far, seems to have no ill effects)

asciilifeform: this is slightly bigger than i can immediately comment on... what's the intended effect ?

shinohai: Remove the stupid loop #define in util.h

asciilifeform: i'm not aware of any compiler where 'for (;;)' has distinct effect from 'while (true)' . so prolly not catastrophe

shinohai: 'for (;;)' just feels ugly to me .....

asciilifeform: tho imho it's 1 leg of 1 small flea on the massive carcass

shinohai: Quite

asciilifeform: for asciilifeform , this kinda thing ranked right down there with fixing the tabulations

asciilifeform: maaaybe makes the thing a little moar readable. but 0 other win.

shinohai: I don't think single shitcoin developer exists that cares about tabulations. (/me imagines they paste stuff in, say "Good enuf!")

asciilifeform: shinohai: 0.5.3 as-found was moar or less consistently (if unaesthetically) indented

asciilifeform: in my patches, i tried to follow the widths of the original

asciilifeform: (simply to make for consistent picture for other folx reading)

asciilifeform: hello Joe65 . who might you be ?

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: He stopped by my channel, asked about Qntra. Curious about the remains of the republic

asciilifeform: aa

asciilifeform looks

asciilifeform: imho folx oughta specify which bone of the remains they're interested in. otherwise difficult to help any

asciilifeform: on that subj, in other noose, asciilifeform has a working ada mmap lib. will genesis after cleanup. (found the magick pill for this old item while reading gnat docs during ffaism..)

snsabot: Logged on 2020-05-21 20:14:24 asciilifeform: in other lulz, found the key to an ancient riddle . turns out, culprit was 'pragma Restrictions(No_Multiple_Elaboration);' .
